no way! ps1 ddrs are the best! i have the original, best hits, 2nd remix, 3rd mix, 4th mix, 4th extra, 5th mix, and disney ddr. gameplay is just like the arcade. all the port overs that they have now are lame and some don't even include the original songs. and the ones that do, the steps are way different. i have to side with the classics on this one too. i love modchips

The song selection is infinite in Stepmania. I have everything you have, and more on my computer
The problems I had with the DDRs on the PSX was the engine. I had Konamix back in the day (that was a great mix, had a ton of good songs) and after I moved to stepmania/PS2 versions of DDR, I couldn't go back. It was harder to read the arrows just because the video was a tad choppy.
Rhythm and Police is probably my favorite song. I've essentially muscle-memorized the heavy stepchart from playing it so much (most of the time I can AA it
).
My friend's got an A on Max300. Such craziness, I can just barely pass it on a good good day.
I will agree with you on the song selections of newer DDRs, the whole library of crappy American pop songs are pretty annoying. The original Konami songs are where it's at

Hey which Baldur's Gate was it where there was a dude that was like "THe PRIEST! Someone killed THE PRIEST!". It made me laugh. Is it part 2 that is Shadow's of Amn? I dunno. I just know I used to play Dungeons and Dragons in high school, AND magic the gathering! WHAT?! I had the best elf deck ever! But it was a type 1 deck. Destroyed any infinite deck, from squirrels, to slivers.

I used to play Magic all the time. We finally found a cheap way to play any deck we wanted. We would just print out the cards from online and build our decks by cutting them out and putting them in card protectors. I made the best fast effects deck ever for 1 on 1. I think it was game over in less than 5 turns

Ah yeah, we called out a lot of people who did that. LOL It just wasn't fair, so if they used any proxies, they had to show us they had the cards. We knew a shop owner who would hold all nighters after hours. We would order pizza and stuff and play in the store. On Fridays, I worked at a call center, so after work about 10pm, I would play all night and go home, take a shower, and head straight to work that Saturday at 5am-12pm for over time. They made all the newbies work that messed up schedule.

well, we just played with a small group of broke college kids that didn't want to spend +$70 for a deck. it was a great way to put them together and try out new ideas and combos. plus, if its common knowledge that everyone is free to print off their own proxies, it isn't hurting any player (sure, the card shop probably doesnt like the idea). I've actually still got the deck saved to a word document.

You still have Episode 1 and Episode 2. Such awesome games. Also, get Portal if you haven't already. It's a marvelous game, just far too short.
Old school? Anyone ever play the original two Metal Gear games? I'm not talking about the NES bastardizations (MG2: Snake's Revenge on the NES wasn't even a real MG game, though Kojima still liked it). I mean the MSX versions. Even for their age, they are awesome games. Real difficult and intricate, especially for their time.

They are short, I'll give them that. But the storyline is far too intricate to not want to play them... they are also just as fun as HL2.
The first was in a league of its own, though. HL2 was good, but HL was just crazy on the first play through. I felt like I was glitching some parts of the game, or skipping around/advancing the wrong way, the puzzles were just so obscure and abstract many times that it feels like you're doing the wrong thing. Its dated graphics make it slightly less enjoyable now... Waiting for "Black Mesa Source" to be finished. It's a third-party conversion of the original Half-Life to the Source engine with vastly updated graphics, models, textures and levels. It looks gorgeous.
I'm also eagerly awaiting Episode 3 and Portal 2. Shame that the "episode" trilogy is essentially HL3. Still, when everything's out, I will probably want to tank through all of the games in a row. Preferably one sitting

I have to say that I like HL2 a lot more than the original...the original was awesome, but looking back it felt a little repetitive...I mean, most of it took place in the corridors and hallways of Black Mesa, but HL2 is much more varied in setting. I'll definitely play the Episodes though, I want every single second of the story.
I think I'm getting close to completing HL2, I just finished Entanglement.
